I'm just some random person on HN so please take this with giant heap of salt, but you've described problems in 2 of the 3 major organs in your arterial system (the third is your kidneys). FWIW, I'd encourage a Hematologist to look there.

Covid can do some strange stuff. FWIW, I've found the Epley maneuver helpful with BPPV.[0]

Sorry about your troubles. I agree with your hypothesis that COVID does more damage when given the right scaffold and that underlying conditions lay the groundwork for lasting damage. Have you considered your problems may be clot related?[0]

Unlike the Olympics where the sports are often obscure, boring or both, the world cup is comprised solely of an exciting game, much which of the world is familiar with from childhood experience. It's a sport that doesn't favor physical giants over skill and depends upon team cohesion over individual talent. As a result, we often see smaller countries with something to prove knock out bigger, established countries. Unless it's your team that loses, EVERYBODY loves an underdog.

Do they? Or does Elon have to explain in front of a judge that employees about to go on protected leave/ older workers/ less fanboy were not unfairly targeted?

My money is on settlement to prevent any judge from seeing how the firing decisions were made.

Firing a pregnant lady in CA simply as a cost cutting measure usually results in a nice settlement for the pregnant lady. FAFO, Elon.

Does this mass layoff comply with the WARN Act and California's mini-WARN?[0] What about all of California's protected classes?[1] The pregnant ladies let go before their FMLA seem especially aggrieved.

Maybe some lawyers here can chime in: How soon will we see some class action lawsuits?

I'm pretty sure that one of the levels of Dante's hell is working a ship's galley in rough seas. Trying to keep your nausea under control despite the lack of fresh air and not get burned by all of the hot, sloshing liquids is only for those who have very sturdy sea legs and a high tolerance for burns.

Because Moscow doesn't have to beat the US on the battlefield of Ukraine if they can ignite a US civil war and force a military withdrawal assymetrically.

Wealth is a proxy for race.[0] Good luck to any court striking down wealth based admissions.

Also, Biloxi is very affordable![1]

Who said anything about race? If you can afford Choate, you can afford $250k/year at Harvard. But the kid from Biloxi, MS gets a "scholarship" so she only pays $25k/yr.

If race is barred then the next method could be increased emphasis on perfect price discrimination to distinguish applicants socioeconomically. Outrageous tuition prices coupled with generous "scholarships" can also create a diverse student body.

Why stop there? There also needs to be a separate nut-free section of the restaurant for dining. Inaccessibility is frustrating but nuts are deadly!

Not if you have lived in Florida for the past 40 months[0], which is why many professional athletes change their residency to Florida and start the clock on the day they sign their professional contract. It appears Alex missed a trick here.

The key here will be if they can attach any of his assets despite his pleas of poverty and filing for bankruptcy. The victims may end up owning the studio he is currently broadcasting from (and his cars, home and anything else of value).
